The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Plugging in the values given:
V = π(8^2)(12)
V = π(64)(12)
V = π(768)
Since π is approximately equal to 3.14, we can calculate the volume:
V ≈ 3.14(768)
V ≈ 2407.52
Therefore, the volume of the container is closest to 2407.52 cubic centimeters.
